Never miss a local story.

Mansfield Timberview LB Michael Badejo: Badejo committed to SMU after visiting the Dallas campus earlier this week. This is the kind of recruit Chad Morris is targeting —Badejo had offers from multiple schools, including Washington, but he chose the Mustangs because they were close to home and they offer the chance of early playing time. DFW is deep with talent, and Badejo, a largely unknown prospect before January, is another example of that.

Keller DE Houston Miller: After a couple visits to Lubbock, you had to expect that Miller was strongly considering Texas Tech. And he went a step further this week with a commitment to the Red Raiders. Miller has been a highly productive player for the Indians, and his stock rose dramatically once his junior film became available.

Trophy Club Nelson OL Kellen Diesch: Diesch and fellow Nelson prospect Brandon Bowen rose to Power 5 prominence this spring. Since Bret Bielema arrived af Arkansas, the Razorbacks have been an attractive option for offensive linemen. Diesch should fit nicely into what Bielema is building.

Arlington Martin LB Hunter Donnelly: Colorado State was one of the first teams to show interest in Donnelly, and he awarded the Rams with a commitment this week. Donnelly has been Burleson Centennial’s best player the last two seasons, and he should add to Arlington Martin’s talented defense his senior year.
